Today's CL post. Guy wants $850 for this PinBot. Let's see....cabinet is pretty shot, playfield has wear on it, he mentions that the boards had acid damage....

I don't know. Doesn't look that bad for only..................$850?
O.K., that's bad for $850.
I love ads where they tell you how cheap and easy it would be to fix all the stuff that's wrong.
If it's that cheap and easy, FIX IT. Then sell.
I'm almost tempted to drop him a note and offer him $100 and just see what he says. Wonder if he's actually negotiable or if he's going to paint it like it's a steal and he really shouldnt even let it go for that price....
I actually dropped the guy a note. Small world, I had reached out and spoken with him a few months back trying to troubleshoot a Xenon problem. He's a decent enough guy and spent a lot of time trying to help me over the phone. If I recall he's doing this just for fun and really specializes in older games.
On the flip side, he didn't want to give much in price. Said he might come down a bit, but if it doesn't sell, he will put in a new set of displays and should 'have no problem getting $1100" for it...
If he gets $1100 for that machine with a new set of displays I think I'm in the wrong business!
There was a Pinbot about 6 month ago in CNY on CL with big chuncks of wood off the front..sitting outside under a tent of some kind for $350. I bet this is the one
